(Pics) The Coolest Stuff We Saw at MONSTERPALOOZA 2016

From SFX makeup demos, to creepy toys and collectibles, to authentic movie props and memorabilia, to incredible monsters of all shapes and sizes, to a wide variety of art and artists, creature makers and celebrities – there was a ton of creepy cool stuff at this year’s MONSTERPALOOZA – the fan-friendly convention that celebrates the art of monsters and movie magic.

Sadly, we missed them (we were too busy taking photos!) – but we did spot Jorge Garcia in the crowd! Yes, Hurley from LOST!

Here’s just a tiny sampling of the creepy fun from this weekend’s Monsterpalooza:
